MAINTENANCE

General Maintenance

Intake Filters

The intake foam filter limits

snow ingestion into the intake

system. When operating in

loose powder snow, check the

top of the foam filter

periodically to remove any

accumulation of snow.

CAUTION

Operating the snowmobile with the intake filters removed may

cause carburetor icing. The result will be poor fuel economy or

carburetor malfunction. Always reinstall the intake filters before

operating the snowmobile.

Fuel Pump

All fuel pump service must be performed by an authorized Polaris

dealer. Do not attempt to service the fuel pump.

Fuel Filter/Fuel Lines

See your Polaris dealer for replacement of the in-tank fuel filter every

1000 miles (or annually).
Inspect the fuel lines regularly for signs of deterioration or damage.

Always check fuel line condition after periods of storage. Normal

deterioration from weather and fuel compounds may occur. Replace

worn or damaged fuel lines promptly.

CAUTION

Kinking the fuel lines or using a pliers or similar tools to remove

fuel lines may cause damage to the lines. If a fuel line has been

damaged or kinked, replace it promptly.
